Most people on this site will support and encourage others to go with their own strong feelings about treatment - to get all the facts of course but then follow your own heart and head. I think the same applies to your pregnancy. You and your husband know your circumstances and feelings best. None of this is anything but hard. Do what you think is best and no regrets. Take care, be very kind to yourself.

Breast cancer is hard enough to deal with.
Having to terminate knowing you never intended another child must be shattering.
Please realise there are people to support you.
The hospital that performs  the procedure should have a worker for you to speak to to discuss any ongoing / adjustment issues.
Hopefully you have a breast care nurse to speak to regarding support through treatment. Soldiercrab has provided the link above. 
Take care. Kath x

Hi chipo, with so much stress surrounding you,the body goes into survival mode.You’ll do what you have to do to get through this awful time.Ofcourse,you will need lots of support from your husband, family, friends and counsellors.At first the Breast cancer diagnosis seems like a bad dream and then reality sets in and we fear the worst. I’ve had bc twice(2003 and 2010) and I’ve been cancer free and fine for the last 7 yrs.The majority of women WILL be ok,so please take some comfort in that.If you think you need a bc support group, I run one in the Hills area of Sydney.

Hi there @Chipo sounds like you are very fragile at the moment. It’s totally normal for you to feel the way you are. You have to do what’s best for you. I have heard of women having chemo when they are pregnant and they have got through it but it sounds like you’ve had issues with the previous pregnancy plus having chemo might just be too much for you so I get it. There will be no judgement on here from us. There are lots of lovelies on here with young families going through bc who will give you plenty of advice and support.  I hope your husband steps up and takes good care of you too. Once you have a plan of attack it will seem less daunting as you will know exactly what you are dealing with. Please seek the help you need I know you must miss your mum more than ever now too. I’ve lost both my parents so I know what that feels like. . It’s tough but we will be here for you and I hope you have other family and friends to support you as well.  Biggest hug  Margie xx
